Broader organ sharing won’t harm liver transplant recipients; percentage of organs transported by flying versus driving will rise

14 agosto 2014

Broader sharing of deceased donor livers will not significantly increase cold ischemia time -— the time the liver is in a cooled state outside the donor suggesting that this is not a barrier to broader sharing of organs. However, findings do indicate that broader sharing of organs will significantly increase the percentage of donor organs that are transported by flying rather than driving.
